The Franchise Tax Board announced late yesterday that California is officially conforming to the IRS extension until October 16th for all tax returns due from January 10th through October 15. Almost all of California is covered by the extension; only Imperial, Kern, Lassen, Modoc, Plumas, Shasta, and Sierra counties are not covered. (The largest cities which still have March, April, June, and September deadlines are Bakersfield, El Centro, and Redding.)
The extension covers:
- 4th quarter 2022 estimated payments due on January 17th;
- Partnership and S-Corporation returns due on March 15th;
- Individual, C-Corporation, and Trust/Estate returns due on April 17th;
- 1st, 2nd, and 3rd quarter 2023 estimated payments due on April 17th, June 15th, and September 15th; and
- Almost all other tax forms due before October 16th.
Individuals in the federal disaster area do not need to do anything to obtain an extension: It’s automatic. However, if you have moved from the area because you were impacted by the flooding or you reside outside of the area and were impacted and need the extension you do need to contact the IRS at 866-562-5227; I would also in such a situation contact the FTB.
